I Have Symptoms That Are Similar To Those Described By

I have symptoms that are similar to those described by patients with trigeminal neuralgia, but the stabbing pain, which feels like an ice pic being jammed in quickly, every second and a half, for weeks on end, is located at the upper back part of the right side of my skull, not in my face. I also have throbbing pain in my teeth on the right side, and a burning pressurized pain diffused on the right side of my head. Are these symptoms all related to TN, or is the stabbing pain on the back right side involving a different cranial nerve?
